WBMM> PSI - source of WBMM use cases

Hi,

I suggest that the WBMM WG should examine each of PSI's Print Service
Use Models (5 of them) in 

    ftp://ftp.pwg.org/pub/pwg/ps/psi_requirements081.pdf
    (there's an underscore after psi)

and ask the following WBMM questions about the Print Service (spooler)
and Target Device (printer) elements:

1)  What configuration data is required for the PSI servers, 
    to support each PSI use model?

2)  What admin operations are required for these PSI servers?

3)  What proxy operations (for example, 'ClonePrinter' for copying
    configuration from one printer to another) would be useful?

4)  What classes of notifications (errors, warnings, periodic status,
    accounting/billing reports, etc.) would be useful?

If WBMM has a goal of managing PSI servers, then let's pursue that
goal.

Cheers,
